Unfortunately TSN is not doing their extended coverage where they have to cover nothing but speculation for the first 2 hours. So I’ll be stuck watching Wimbledon and they will break in with news as it happens.

Frankly it’s probably a better way to spend their day but I’m still disappointed. Mainly because I won’t get to read Jay Onrait’s blog as he makes fun of the TSN talking heads.As for what to expect, I’m not expecting much and that was even before Giguere went on record saying not to expect much. I don’t think he’ll do nothing but last year was an anomaly when they signed two of the biggest names.But still, I am excited not just for what happens with the Avalanche but also what happens all around the league.Related LinksAvs not planning on making major additionGiguere discusses Avs directionFree agency last minute post from JibFree agency last minute thoughts from Dater. By Alonso Soto Bonds April 22 (Reuters) – Ecuador’s socialist President RafaelCorrea is expected to easily win a second term in Sunday’spresidential election, but faces tougher times as low oilprices threaten his spending on the poor. WHY IS ECUADOR HOLDING GENERAL ELECTIONS NOW? Correa had nearly two years left of his current term, but anew constitution approved last year permits him to start againfrom scratch.

The new rules allow presidents two consecutiveterms in office, and if he wins on Sunday, Correa will hope torun again in four years time. The elections for almost all public officials in the Andeannation will help Correa consolidate control over thelegislature and local governments in a volatile country with ahistory of ousting presidents. WHAT CAN WE EXPECT OF CORREA IF HE WINS A SECOND TERM? Correa will do his best to keep up spending on socialprograms, although the slowing economy could limit him and harmhis popularity. He will also try to maintain a tough stancewith foreign investors, pushing for more state control of themining and oil industries and renegotiating Ecuador’s debt. His style has won support from many Ecuadoreans tired ofweak governments, but has also scared away foreign investmentat a time when state finances are under pressure. Correa has recently shown some moderation by dealing withthe business elite and debt holders, but some analysts doubthis pragmatism will last too long and expect Correa to stick tohis winning formula of confrontation.
